Gabriel Roybal Photography

Gabriel Roybal – I started taking a million
different photographs when I started commuting from Half Moon Bay to San
Francisco on a daily Basis. I have also been fortunate to travel to
Maui several times over the years for a science and engineering teaching
workshop. I am going to miss this drive as well as the epic scenery
when I move to the city next month. Just getting it all out of my
system now while the opportunity still exists.
More regarding this website! -

My name is Gabriel Roybal. I am currently an
ISIS PostDoc at UC San Francisco Medical School and a lecturer at San
Francisco State University. I will be teaching Stem Cell Biology in the
Fall of 2012.
It is my hope that this site will serve as a place where students who
are interested in an array of careers can hear the human/personal
perspective of professionals and other students. You can imagine that it
would be somewhat like a virtual Career Panel Discussion. I hope that
it will serve as a place for students to see examples of every
experience and background and how one can succeed and find happiness in
the career of their choice – all the while retaining their identity
outside of work.
Over the years as I have sat on Career Panel Discussions and
interacted with students of different stages of their career, I am
struck by the sense that stereotypes of professions, other students and
professionals can influence whether a student thinks they want to pursue
or could be successful at a particular career. Most of us have had
many experiences in our careers that are ‘non-traditional’ or
challenging. Sharing these experiences can enrich the decision making
process for people a little earlier in their careers. So rather than
waiting for the next opportunity to share your experiences at a formal
career panel discussion, i hope you will see this as an opportunity to
positively influence students immediately.
I think hearing your story, would be very helpful for students considering various careers.
